[Chorus]
What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?

[Verse 1]
I'm thinking of friends who I used to know
They lived and they suffered in this world below
But now they're gone up to heaven, and I got to know
What are they doing right now?

[Chorus]
What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?

[Verse 5]
There are those who were poor and often despised
They look up to heaven through tear-blinded eyes
But the people heedless, deaf to their cries
What are they doing right now?

[Chorus]
What are they doing in heaven today
My sin and my sorrow have all washed away
Peace be bound like a river, they say
What are they doing right now?
What are they doing right now?
